"Whatever had occurred to Nina was genuine. genuine shackles were around her wrists, genuine scars covered her back, and real horror washed over her.

"'They're going to kill me,' Nina whispered, and it was almost a relief to finally, finally give up hope."

Third children are compelled to go into hiding or live with phony identification documents in a culture that forbids families from having more than two children under pain of death. Nina Idi was charged with treason in Among the Impostors after it was said that she attempted to coerce the Population Police into detaining other pupils on the grounds that they were undocumented third children. She is now in danger of torture or death until she consents to betray three other third children who are in jail. When she meets the prisoners—who are barely 10, nine, and six years old—her predicament becomes worse.

As she skillfully demonstrated in the Publishers Weekly best-selling books Among the Hidden and Among the Impostors, Margaret Peterson Haddix transports readers once again to a world where nothing is as it appears and where being imprisoned may lead to an adventure that challenges one's body, mind, and soul.
